Skinsinparadise Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Could it be? King wrote: A smart guy in the league told me the other day: “Look for the desperate teams with Brown.” What team is more desperate than Washington, which is hemorrhaging fans, has no idea who the 2019 quarterback will be, has no idea who the 2020 coach will be, hasn’t won a playoff game in 14 years, and has an embattled owner searching for anything that will get his team out of the muck and mire of mediocrity? This also fits the Pittsburgh plan of wanting to send Brown out of the AFC. The problem, obviously, would be finding a quarterback to get the ball to Brown. But Washington’s a team that loves to win the offseason and hasn’t done so in a while. I’d be surprised if Bruce Allen and Kevin Colbert don’t talk about Brown. Inside the Beltway, folks want to know if Brown's availability is the exact answer to the Redskins' lack of playmakers. A case can be made either way. https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/case-and-against-redskins-trading-antonio-brown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying what we do end up with will be much better, but i think our defense and supporting cast can still take us pretty far. We will see how FA and the draft go. Unless it's Tom Brady, defense still wins championships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Est.1974 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Plenty of moves being made by other teams, releases, potential cuts, trade candidates etc, yet nothing from Redskins world. Even the stories of the Scherff extension and AP talks have tailed off. I mean, it's a guess, but Bruce and Co must be in the process of conjuring up their latest major move. Something 'significant' has to be just around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWJ Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I'd rather the Skins use a 3rd on WR Isabella from UMass then a 3rd on Ross. Ross has injury issues and will be MUCH more costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've already shown your hand by wanting to give up on him in the first place, you're just trying to salvage the situation. He's the type of deep threat woth potential we need, and at the price I mentioned I'd go for it. Similar deep threats in the draft will go much higher. This would be a great use of one of our later comp picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skins2victory Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We could potential draft another Bama defensive player this year too. Maybe Christian Miller OLB Alabama with our first 3rd round pick?? Preston is likely gone so there is a good chance we look at that position in the draft.

Reaper Skins Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 What's Randall Cobb's situation? I'm thinking he might have the potential to be this year's John Brown. Older receiver coming off a down year from nagging injuries who could be had for cheap. I wouldn't give him #1 money, but could be a steal https://clutchpoints.com/3-early-potential-nfl-free-agency-destinations-for-randall-cobb/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HigSkin Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Corner Josh Norman ($8.5 million savings) Tight end Jordan Reed ($6 million) Linebacker Zach Brown ($5.75 million) Tight end Vernon Davis ($4.9 million) Linebacker Mason Foster ($4 million) Defensive end Stacy McGee ($2.275 million) I'd be okay with any of these except Norman and if they draft a stud TE. You'd have to pay that or more to replace Norman with a good vet and our TE's can't block or stay healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Tater Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 We won't resign Preston Smith or Crowder and it is NOT because of talent or price. It is because both were from the 2015 draft (first Scott) and Scherff is too good. Norman was a 2016 FA, so he might find himself at risk. Since another TE with injury history is a FA, Reed could find himself expendable. Hey,if by some miracle (or Snyder listens to Wormtounge 2.0) Bruce is GM next year, he also gets to get rid of Doctson and possibly Ionniadas. That would pretty much eliminate Scott's direct work which is a huge goal for Bruce. Morse is a FA. He is the guy we'd probably have taken if we'd gone after Leonard Williams. That would be an in-your face Scott move that Bruce might like and Kujo won't even be in the running for backup (the last 2015 draft pick besides Scherff). Tyler Eifert has an injury history but is pretty good when not injured. He'll be cheap and a guy with injury history is Bruce's style. We need an edge too. Is there a guy out there with an injury history who we can get? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
